Anyone coming along to the Dyfi next year? Always a great event. It will probably sell out in the next 2 weeks I reckon.12, 20 or 28 mile route depending on how many laps you fancy.https://www.britishcycling.org.uk/events/details/154044/Dyfi-Winter-Warm-Up-2017 (https://www.britishcycling.org.uk/events/details/154044/Dyfi-Winter-Warm-Up-2017)

Hey - so this is happening in a fortnight! From the responses in this thread it looks like it's me, Curtis, Andy and Dom entered. Anyone else get in before they sold out?

Previously we've driven up on the Saturday, rode something close like Nant yr Arian, stayed in the youth hostel in Borth then rode Dyfi on the Sunday. Anyone fancy that?

I know! Time seems to be flying since Christmas! :o I fancy this but not sure if I'll get flight clearance for the whole weekend. My father's got an op later the week after and I'll be absent the next weekend :-[ I'll choose my moment and request clearance, Air Traffic Control is currently a bit grumpy! ::)

If anyone has the mind and is able, can they find out about the tickets available on the Dyfi Facebook page, please?I don't use Facebook so am hobbled there. I have emailed the organisers and tried phoning but no luck yet.

Justin/Craig/Rob and anyone else contemplating ;) on closer inspection it's not looking good. There's a few people asking for spare tickets and one guy offering a couple. I've asked him if he still has them, but given the supply demand situation, I'm not so hopeful. :-\

Photos are in already! But all I could find so-far:http://www.mawoodphotography.com/photo30077293.html#photo (http://www.mawoodphotography.com/photo30077293.html#photo)http://www.mawoodphotography.com/photo30077299.html#photo (http://www.mawoodphotography.com/photo30077299.html#photo)http://www.mawoodphotography.com/photo30076540.html (http://www.mawoodphotography.com/photo30076540.html)

Yea - what a great event as always, cheers for the company. Bonus unexpected snow was awesome too! Also good that my brothers mashed hand didn't seem to hold him up!

Here's a few more photos, haven't been through the rest:http://www.mawoodphotography.com/photo30076522.html#photo (http://www.mawoodphotography.com/photo30076522.html#photo)http://www.mawoodphotography.com/photo30076528.html#photo (http://www.mawoodphotography.com/photo30076528.html#photo)http://www.mawoodphotography.com/photo30076537.html#photo (http://www.mawoodphotography.com/photo30076537.html#photo)http://www.mawoodphotography.com/photo30076545.html (http://www.mawoodphotography.com/photo30076545.html)

I think a few of us may have been close to nodding off at times on some of the descents on lap 1 - the hold-ups in places really were rather slow. However, I think it's fair to say that those same descents woke up the drowsy in lap two!
